Mobile Athlons

[mike_w]

Not going to get one, I was just wondering what sort of speeds the Mobile Athlons are reaching? Like these:

Mobile Thoroughbred 1500+: http://www.cpucitystore.co.uk/catalo...roducts_id=477

Mobile Throughbred 1600+: http://www.cpucitystore.co.uk/catalo...roducts_id=476

Mobile Barton 2400+: http://www.cpucitystore.co.uk/catalo...roducts_id=464

Mobile Barton 2500+: http://www.cpucitystore.co.uk/catalo...roducts_id=392

I'm just curious really. I've heard about the great overclocking on the 2500+, but what sort of speeds are there with the other processors?

the mobile bartons average around 2.4 GHz on good air cooling i think. Most the bartons 2400-2600 clock about the same i think

i can get 2.7 ghz on about 2.05v with my xp2500-m,it won't go much higher though regardless of voltage

[Efaill]

another good point about mobiles. They're perfect for sff system where they run at a lower voltage than desktop processor so their heat output is lower and such lower temps which mean that temp controlled fans in a shuttle and the like don't go into high as often.

what cooling are you using?

[schrickvr6]

water although i could get 2650 using a swiftech mcx462-v

Get the mobile 1500+, if you don't mind less cache. They'll reach 2400MHz no probs.

For £30 you can't argue, right?

I could argue that....deffo.

Its not a patch on a regualr cache sized chip. Lots of second hand XP1700 and 1800's to be had for £30 and those will do just over 2gig and with no effort.

Is cache really worth it? Yeah....the Thorobread cache is a good thing...

So the Mobile Thoroughbreds have less cache than the other Thoroughbreds?

My mobile barton 2400+ does 2600 on air, but its is only doing 2300 at the momment as i can keep my comp silent at this speed.
